That simconnect.log file you provided was a little bit too brief. I need a few more seconds of activity to see whether FS Force DLL connects successfully with Simconnect. All I can see is that it was loaded. Just start a flight, let it sit on the tarmac for 10 seconds, and then shut it down.

Ok, followed your advice.
- there is no error message in the Windows Event logs.
I cannot attach the complete simconnect.log file. It's too lang.
I had to cut again and put it in zip-format. (maybe this will do)

P.S. Just an information: I didn't install FsForce into C:\Program Files (x86)\FsForce but on another drive.
This shouldn't be the problem It works on my P3Dv4.2.

Thanks, it shows that FSForce.dll is being loaded, but it never goes further and starts operation. I was looking at the logfile.txt you send me at first, and it is a bit confusing. It seems to have some conflicting information. Please empty it out, or delete it, then start FSX Gold, start a flight, wait 20 seconds, shut down and send me the resulting logfile.txt.

I'm pretty certain that the DLL is having trouble loading SimConnect, which it needs to operate. Since you have tried re-installing that, you'll have to try something more drastic: go into Control Panel and see if FSX has a repair option, and run it. I hate to say it, but if that doesn't work, the next step is uninstall and reinstall!

As an aside, you mentioned you have FSX Gold. As I understand it, that is the initial version of FSX along with a disk for the Acceleration Pack. Is that correct. Did you install the Acceleration Pack?

Correct, FSX Gold is FSX Deluxe Edition plus Acceleration Pack.
Yes, Acc pack is installed, of course.
Well, maybe I will try a repair. What I remember so far the repair function is on the FSX installation disk. Will let you know what happened (in case I will do so ...)
Thanks for your assistance!

Dieter

Addendum:
Just ran the repair functions for FSX and Acc Pack but no success.
